Corte Madera is largely residential, with many properties managed by routine landscaping and seasonal maintenance. That means exposure scenarios often look like:
- Homeowners and family members using weed killer for driveways, walkways, and garden edges.
- Property maintenance or landscapers applying products around homes and shared areas.
- Secondary exposure from residue brought indoors on shoes, clothing, or tools.
- Delayed recognition, where symptoms show up months or years after treatment—especially when people were using products off and on over time.
In practice, these realities can make evidence feel “scattered.” Product labels get tossed, receipts disappear, and memories become less precise. The faster you collect what you can, the easier it is to build a credible exposure timeline—an issue that often affects how quickly cases move.
